I think there is a lot more to it than bruised personal feelings. Trump stands to turn the whole Bush agenda on its head - neo-con foreign policy, amnesty for illegals, trade, social security “reform,” etc. The Bush family may well covertly support Hillary - they seem to feel quite comfortable with the Clintons.

No Bush yet has been a conservative. We now get strip searched at the airport by a bunch of booger eating foreigners thanks to Bush Jr. The Department of Homeland Security is his doing too. The NSA spying was ratcheted up during Bush Sr.’s term. Bush Sr. hates Reagan and did everything he could to undo his work.

The whole crop of Bush’s have said nothing of how destructive Obama has been since he took office. So who cares who they endorse or don’t endorse? Not me. Bush was right about the axis of evil, but he went after the wrong spoke of that axis first.

In my view, the Bush’s have done more to destroy the Republican Party (and by extension the country) than any other political entity. First, H.W. ruined the incredible domestic policy legacy he inherited from Reagan by reneging on his tax pledge, and becoming a one-term President because of it. The W. destroyed the Republican advantage in foreign affairs by getting us into the Iraq War, not to mention doing nothing to prevent the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, and then shoveling trillions in public funds at Wall Street because of it.

But worst for both of them was the failure to stop illegal immigration, which set the stage for the demographic destruction of the Republican Party and of the country. Trump is the last best hope, but it might just be too late because of the tens of millions of mindless straight-ticket Democrat drones who have been imported and/or naturalized (to the extent that naturalization is still even required to vote) since 1988.

The Bushes have managed to transformed the adoration they once receives to utter contempt.

Look, the Republican National Convention should be the nominee’s big party. There is no need for the old gray-hairs to come out. Let Trump and his supporters have their well-deserved party.

George H.W. Bush's acceptance of a tax hike (forced on him by a Democratic Congress)...

That wasn't forced on him. Bush caved and abandoned his "no new taxes" pledge at the urging of Treasury Secretary Nicholas Brady and Office of Management and Budget director Richard Darman.

Bush'e decision to break his pledge on taxes made him a one-term president.

Looking forward to the utter failure of the Clinton and Obama brands.
